The Good, The Bad And The Ugly started as just an instrumental song, if I'm remembering correctly, and I just really liked the acoustic guitar solo part I'd come up with. It gave me a feeling of something that would be in the soundtrack of a western movie. So, then I thought I'd try to come up with some lyrics for it, and I thought of one of my favorite Clint Eastwood movies - the spaghetti western of the same name. I basically summarized the plot and made it fit. Although it comes nowhere close to being as great as the actual movie soundtrack to that film, it's a neat song by itself that I am pleased with.
